Welcome

Welcome to my arts and crafts blog. I wanted a place separate from my photography blog where I can talk about art, crafts, DIY and my latest passion, Pinterest. I am not opposed to talking about Photography here also. I want a place where other bloggers can upload what they have made or join in discussions about anything creative. No judgement please on photography uploaded from anyone as I for one plan to use my phone on a lot of tutorials. I know a lot of blogs have beautiful photography and that is great if you have the time but sometimes it is just easier to capture it on your phone for example's sake.

Easy 3 ingredient frosting.....so good 

edit:  I put the frosting in the refrigerator and it hardened into a thick custard which was an awesome desert alone!!!!!!

A few marshmallows a little bit of coconut milk and a couple tablespoons of cream cheese.  I didn't really measure anything as this was an experiment that worked!  If I had to guess, about 10 large marshmallows, 1/4 cup of coconut milk and 2 oz of cream cheese.  I put everything in a bowl and microwaved 1-2 minutes with stirring in between.  Depending on your microwave, you should do it in 1 minute intervals.  Only microwave until the marshmallows start getting really soft and still have some shape.  Then you will mix it well with a fork.  You do not want to overcook the marshmallows.  This frosting was so yummy that I could eat it alone.  The coconut milk really added a nice flavor.  If you do not like coconut milk, I am sure regular, evaporated or condensed milk will work and depending how thick you want it.  It is a thin frosting so really good to drizzle over scones, biscuits or muffins.  Or if you do not have those in the house, this is what I tried it with;  One tortilla plus cinnamon.  I warmed up the tortilla and spread the frosting onto the tortilla, sprinkled a little cinnamon over the frosting and rolled up the tortilla.  That was good!
